Wu Shi looked at Wei Yu, then at Xiang Zhuang, and asked, "General, are you still going to Handan?" ”

Xiang Zhuang pondered for a moment, and said to Wei Yu: "Military advisor, why don't you go to Handan and indirectly attack Huguan?" ”

Wei Yi shook his head and sighed: "General, if Zhang Liang really understands the old strategy, how can he only put his pocket in Handan?" For the next move of our army, he will definitely make arrangements in advance, Huguan is a natural danger, if our army can capture it in one fell swoop, it will be fine, if it can't be captured, and the two armies of Han and Zhao are trapped in the Huguan Gorge, then it will be a catastrophe. ”

"What then?" Wu Shi frowned and said, "Handan can't go, and Huguan can't either, do you want to go to Yandi?" ”

Xiang Zhuang and Wei Yi shook their heads with a wry smile at the same time, of course the Chu army can't go to Yandi, Yandi is far away from the hinterland of the Central Plains, the land is vast and sparsely populated, and it is difficult to supply, how to survive at that time is a problem, and Yandi is frequently on the border, and it is possible to encounter the Huns at any time.

Wu Shi paused, and then said, "Or, kill back to Qidi?" ”

"Absolutely not!" Xiang Zhuang said categorically, "Han Xin has probably returned to Qi Di, and if he returns to Qi Di at this time, isn't that a tiger swooping flies on his head and looking for death?" "It's not that Xiang Zhuang is arrogant, Han Xin's ability to serve as a soldier is rare in history, just with the more than 5,000 remnants of the Chu army, against Han Xin's hundreds of thousands of troops, it is definitely dead or alive.

Wei Yu sighed and said a little helplessly: "General, there are still few soldiers." ”

The Chu army is still a small number of soldiers, if there are many soldiers, if there are 50,000 elite soldiers, then it is completely able to divide the troops into two ways, one way to attack Handan with great fanfare, attracting the attention of Liu Bang and the princes of all walks of life, and the other way is to go straight to Huguan, slightly Handi, and then go straight down to Guanzhong from Hedong, at that time, Liu Bang he is unwilling, and can only return to the division in a hurry.

Once Liu Bang returned to Guanzhong, most of his momentum of sweeping the world would be broken.

After Wei Yu finished speaking, he looked at Xiang Zhuang at the same time as Wu She, and the final idea was definitely to be taken by Xiang Zhuang.

Xiang Zhuang was silent, it's time for him, is there a way out for him? Stretching out the head is a knife, shrinking the head is still a knife, it is better to move forward bravely, maybe you can fight a bloody way out of a desperate situation! Handan can not go, Zhao Di can not be plundered, but the pot can not be lowered, and Guanzhong can not be stopped, I didn't say it, fight!

At that moment, Xiang Zhuang shouted: "Don't go to Handan, indirectly go to Huguan!" ”

After saying this, Xiang Zhuang said again, "The army doesn't need to hide the traces, the front is densely populated, even if you want to hide the traces, it is impossible, then Suo Xing Minghuo will march in a hurry, maybe you can still mix the pearls and pass the pass!" ”

In the eastern suburbs of Ye County, Zhou Bo's 20,000 elite soldiers were zigzag along the gallop road towards Handan.

Zhou Bo's army went all the way north, and the beacon towers in Ye County lit wolf smoke one after another to warn Handan.

Ye County Commander has received a secret order from King Zhao, regardless of the Han army or the Chu army, as long as they find that a large army has entered the Zhao land, they will all light the beacon fire to warn, and at the same time close all the city gates, the first soldiers and the people in the city all ascend the city, and strictly guard, the Zhao army did this not only to prevent the Chu army from passing the pass, but also to guard against the Han army taking the opportunity to capture the city of Zhao.

In the final analysis, Zhang Er only admitted that he was Liu Bang's ally, but did not consider himself to be Liu Bang's courtier.

In the sound of hurried horses' hooves, a white-robed young general urged the horse to come to the Han general Zhou Bo, and pointed to the low city wall of Ye County with a horse whip in his hand and said to Zhou Bo: "Father led a large army to Zhao Di to help in the war, and the county commander of Ye County not only did not appreciate it, but also guarded us like a thief. ”

"Don't mess around!" Zhou Bo scolded softly, but his tone was full of doting.

Zhou Guanfu is the only son of Zhou Bo (Zhou Yafu was not born at this time), and he just came to Zhou Bo's army not long ago.

Zhou Guanfu has just turned seventeen years old this year, his face is like a crown of jade, his eyes are like a star, he is heroic, he is eight feet five inches tall, he has extraordinary strength, he can open a seven-stone hard bow, he is good at using a pair of short halberds, and he has the courage of ten thousand people! Zhou Bo named his son Guanfu, just hoping that his son could be brave and brave, and he didn't want to grow up to be really brave, so Zhou Bo couldn't help but be happy.

Although he was scolded by his father, Zhou Guanfu didn't care at all, and said: "Father, Fan Hao was really beheaded by Xiang Zhuang?" ”

Bo's face immediately became very serious, and he said in a deep voice, "Fan Xuwuyong is not under Xiang Yu, but he was still beheaded by Xiang Zhuang in the battle formation, he ** met Xiang Zhuang in front of the battle, don't be a strong opponent, you know?" ”

"Father, the child is not afraid of Xiang Zhuang." Zhou Guanfu raised the double iron halberds in his hand and shouted, "The pair of iron halberds in the child's hand, when you kill all the heroes in the world, what is the way to do it?" ”

"Don't talk nonsense!" Zhou Bo finally changed his face, and shouted, "You are so young, how dare you be so arrogant?!" ”

Zhou Guanfu saw that Zhou Bo was really angry, so he lowered his head and stopped talking, but he was still unconvinced in his heart, thinking that if he really met Xiang Zhuang on the battlefield one day, he would have to kill the generals before the battle! It is said that Xiang Zhuang is now the first in the world, if Xiang Zhuang is killed, won't he Zhou Guanfu be the new first in the world?

On the left side of the sand dunes, on the bank of Zhangshui, the 5,000 Chu army is rushing westward!

In order to seize time as much as possible, Xiang Zhuang decided to abandon the way of marching day and night, and instead marched in the daytime, and the marching route was no longer a remote path, but a straight march along the main road, and more than 100 cavalry scouts had all been scattered, one to investigate the enemy's situation, and the other to drive away the pedestrians on the road ahead, clearing the obstacles for the march of the army.

However, the army had just crossed the Zhangshui when an unforeseen situation suddenly appeared!

Xiang Zhuang was riding a black horse, and when he was marching unhurriedly with the large group of people and horses, Wei Yue Wuyang, who was riding in front of his saddle, suddenly pointed in front of him and shouted: "Husband, look, it seems to be wolf smoke?" ”

"Wolf smoke?!" Xiang Zhuang's heart sank when he heard this, and he hurriedly looked in the direction of Wei Yue Wuyang's finger, and sure enough, he saw a small earthen platform a few miles to the south, and a dazzling smoke had already risen from the earthen platform, could it be wolf smoke?

Wei Yu, Wu She, Huan Chu, Ji Bu, and Yu Zi period, who followed behind Xiang Zhuang on horseback, also changed one after another.

"General, farther out there, there's wolf smoke!" Soon, another soldier shouted from a farther away.

In fact, without the prompt of the soldiers, Xiang Zhuang, Wei Yi and others have also seen it, the wolf smoke warning, this is definitely the wolf smoke warning! It seems that Wei Yi's worries have become a reality, Zhang Liang has seen through his strategy, Zhao Di has been prepared, and it is impossible for the Chu army to try to pass the pass again!

After less than half a cup of tea, Gongsun galloped back from the south with more than ten horses.

Gongsun Sui was still holding a Zhao army pawn in front of the saddle, and when he arrived in front of Xiang Zhuang's horse, Gongsun then smashed the Zhao army pawn to the ground, and then reported to Xiang Zhuang: "General, the villain pulled out a beacon tower in the south, beheaded two people, and caught a live mouth!" ”

Zhao Jun's pawn turned over and knelt on the ground, kowtowing again and again and begging for mercy: "The general spares his life, the general spares his life, which ......"

Xiang Zhuang rode his horse to the pawn and said in a deep voice: "This general asks you, if you answer truthfully, you can live, if there is half a lie, you will not be forgiven!" ”

Zhao Jun's pawn said repeatedly: "The villain must answer truthfully." ”

Xiang Zhuang pointed to the beacon tower that was uprooted by Gongsun Sui not far away, and asked, "When was this beacon tower built?" Who told you to build it? ”

"This beacon tower was built five days ago, and it was ordered by the county guard."

Zhao Jun's pawn said this, and said: "The villain also heard that not only Julu County has built many beacon towers, but also Handan County in the south and Hengshan County in the north have also built many beacon towers. ”

Xiang Zhuang quietly bowed his head, and then made a look with Gongsun, Gongsun then understood, immediately turned over and dismounted, and pulled out a horizontal knife on the neck of Zhao Jun's pawn, and shouted: "Boy, you dare to lie? ”

"Ah, no, no, no, no, what the villain said is true." Zhao Jun's pawn was so frightened that his buttocks flowed.

Xiang Zhuang glanced at him again, and Gongsun then kicked Zhao Jun's pawn on the ass and scolded: "Get out!" ”

Zhao Jun's pawn was like a méng amnesty, and crawled away, and Xiang Zhuang turned his head and instructed Gongsun Sui: "Order, the whole army will speed up the march and attack Huguan!" Although his deeds have been violent, Xiang Zhuang still did not change his decision, or that sentence, he has no other choice, even if he knows that this is a dead end, he can only rush forward.

Handan, the palace of King Zhao.

Zhang Er, the king of Zhao, fell ill when he returned to China, and his condition deteriorated rapidly, and he was unable to get up within two days.

At this meeting, Zhang Er is convening the national minister and the prince Zhang Ao to discuss, just a moment ago, the beacon fire ignited in the south and southeast has been transmitted to Handan, and at the same time, Ye County and Wei County have also sent flying horses to report that the four Han armies have entered Zhao in a big way, and it is less than fifty miles away from Handan!

Zhang Er had already received a report from Liu Bangfei, knowing that this was the arrival of the four-way army of Zhou Bo, Wang Su, Mei Kai, and Fu Kuan, and the remaining armies of Xiahou Ying and Li Shang were estimated to be about to enter Zhaodi, only the remnants of Xiangzhuang's Chu army have not heard from now, and I don't know if they can really enter Zhaodi?

Zhang Er was a little uneasy, and asked Guan Gaodao: "Prime Minister, the beacon towers should be repaired at all the gates, right?" ”

"The king can rest assured, there are more than 20 counties in the three counties of Julu, Handan, and Hengshan, and all the entrances are already all over the beacon tower, as long as there is a large army entering Zhaodi, no matter which ** team it is, the king will know the news as soon as possible!" There is still a high level of self-confidence, this is not only to guard against the Chu army, but also to guard against the Han army, how can he take it lightly?

Guan Gao's voice fell, and there was an internal report: "King, the wolf smoke is rising from the North Lookout!" "ps: There is one thing to explain, during the period of Chu and Han hegemony, there were two Han Xin, one is Han Xin, the king of Qi, which is well-known, and the other is Han Xin, the king of Han, which everyone may not be familiar with, in history, in order to avoid confusion, Han Wang Han Xin is usually not called Han Xin, but Han Wang Xin.
